It's time for the ozarks and big browns and rainbows in the dark:) ok as well as sitting in my tree with a bow lol. I will be hunting Wednesday but my pilgrimage to the white is just around the corner. This will be the tenth or eleventh year. I have seen ten flood gates open low water and every thing in between. Yet I have never had a remotely bad trip. I drowned my digital camera that had the first four or five years on it and I had never saved them I will never use that big of memory card again and also drowned A disposable from a trip there as well LOL. I lost nights with ten trout over 20 inches but hey I still have some good pics. Even though it's still several weeks away I'm already packing. I just can't help it wish I was there now.

for those who didn't know about the blue rubber glove trip last year. I fell off my buddies roof when a telescopic ladders latch gave way. I fell from the second story and bounced off of his driveway I broke my wrist and five places. My ortho said don't use it at all but I had him cut out my thumb on the cast so I can still use it. I headed out three days later fished six nights and two days with a rubber dish glove protecting my cast. Caught several hundred trout in the course of the week. Got back and fixed a strap to my elbow so I could get my bow back and took a doe out of a tower stand I climbed up in with one hand and made two trips because I didn't want to fall on an arrow lol. I also process my own deer and got the job done. Went in for my two week checkup and he ask me if I could use it at all he almost fell over when I showed him pictures of what I had done. Only had the cast on four or five weeks and he said that was the fastest heal he had ever seen. I can't wait for the adventure this year brings I expect it to be slow by white standards with flood gates open again this spring but I know I'll catch a lot of numbers and a few good fish to boot. Tight lines to all this fall!!!!

I drowned two phones this year. I figured out if you don't fall into the water your phone won't get wet. Figured I would pass that bit of info on to you

I got an 80 dollar Lifeproof case. Hope that fixes it cause I'm gonna fall in the water again, LOL.
